1.1 Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) Caenorhabditis elegans is a free-living non-parasitic, non-infectious, non-pathogenic, transparent Nematode (roundworm). It has a full grown length of about 1mm, a life span of around 3 weeks and is found in temperate soil environments where it survives by feeding on microbes such as bacteria. [1] Consisting of about 1000 somatic cells as an adult, C. elegans is amenable to genetic crosses and produces a large number of progeny, at times even…
The past decade has seen the rapid development of iris identification in many approaches to identify unique iris features such as crypts. However, it is noted that, unique iris feature change due to iris aging, diet or human health conditions. The changing of iris features creates the mismatch in comparison phase to determine either genuine or not genuine. Therefore, to determine genuinely, this study proposes a new model of iris recognition using combinational approach of a split block and…
In virtually every language, the term for Abirthmark@ can be translated as some variant of the terms Aenvy,@ Awish,@ Alonging,@ or “mother’s mark.” Does this suggest anything to you about what people in the past thought might be the causes of birthmarks? something the mother did caused the birth mark? D. Birth Process 14. Childbirth is conventionally divided into three stages. What are they? mother experiences regular uterine contractions that are usually spaced to 10 to 15 minute…
As a rule, the gill area is greater in fast-moving crabs (Portunids) than in sluggish bottom dwellers; decreases progressively from wholly aquatic, to intertidal, to land species; and is greater in young crabs than in older crabs. Often the gills are enclosed in protective chambers, and ventilation is provided by specialized appendages that create the respiratory current. As in cephalopod mollusks, oxygen utilization is relatively high—up to 70 percent of the oxygen is extracted from the water…
materials such as metal or a plastic substance is poured onto a platform. Lasers or electronic beams melt the material and fuse the layer to the previous one. This allows for the object being printed to have the layers needed to make such distinct anatomical parts. The material being used depends on the medical necessity for the piece being made. This technology had already been producing devices to guide physicians in surgical encounters, but when a part was produced that saved a baby it took…
I) Fundus ii) Body and iii) Pylorus (or antrum). The proximal stomach consisted*include of fundus and body, which serves as a reservoir for ingested materials, whereas the distal region (pylorus) is the major site of mixing motions, acting as a pump to propel gastric contents for gastric emptying. Gastric emptying occurs both *condition in fasting as well as fed states. The GI*gastro intestinal tract is always in a state of continuous motility. There are *this have two modes…
